Jim,

Off the top of my head I think it was virtually opposite the mosque near the dolmus station. It was certainly on the main road on the opposite side to the mosque (same side and same road as Gima)

Hope you find it.

ps - if you get time whilst in Calis I would go onto the avea web site (it has an english option) and register with them on line. Then you will be able to top up your sim from the UK. The reason you need to do it in Turkey is because you need a text from them which gives you an access number.

Let me know if it works.

This is the address locator from their web site. Scroll down to Mugla and then in the second box, Fethiye.

Ok sorry more confused now than ever. Our sim is Avea, we purchased in Oct last year and as far as we know its not been registered.  We were out early June and it worked fine all week, worried again now that it may not work when we come back out next month. Do you mean we can go on the web in Turkey to the Avea site and register there or do we have to go to the phone shop?? if we go to the phone shop will we still need a receipt with the imei number showing(not got as old contract phone) or will we just need a passport?? If the phone does not work and we buy a Turkish phone will the sim work in that or do we have to start all over again. Sorry for sounding dumb and i know no one is really sure but this justs gets more and more confusing.:D

You can get the IMEI by typing *#06# into your phone.
That is about all I know about it though,

If it worked last time you went I would just leave it as it is. If not you might need to reconsider your options.

ps my hones all have the imei number written under the battery on the body of the phone:D

The main Avea shop is just a few doors up from Deniz Bank, opposite the polis station
